A shout out has just gone up on Twitter from Fair Cop:

We URGENTLY need screenshots or other evidence of training provided by Mermaids, Gendered Intel, Stonewall etc. If it’s to the police, perfect. But to whoever will do. Thank you.

Are Fair cop picking things up from here or do we need to post to them directly?

Sorry @Sicario @Hazzatheowl I don’t have twitter but let me know if you need more than I’ve posted already.

@ChristaMSieland, I’ve already dropped the recordings, unless you know of something else I can look for?

ChristaMSieland · 27/10/2019 14:37

Didn't the manbox chap have recordings? Sorry, can't think of his name. He's on GC twitter.

Mermaids training presentation

The transcribed documents are here:
Part 1: docs.google.com/document/d/1aeFV0T6j4PXvm1xZBS_50oSJYV-_gO8YMoFjKjNA_9Y/edit

Part 2: docs.google.com/document/d/1NDOMlo2aEpBl2ySfKdEWCb1H94tZciKiqUffjH1ku0Y/edit

Here's the recordings on soundcloud:

soundcloud.com/user-407799333/mermaids-barbie-gijoe-jelly-babies-and-other-nonsense-part-2

Parts of the transcript include the presenter telling the group, "don't think about it, trust me" and "seriously, stop thinking."

The presentation uses for eg clownfish can change sex as a justification for teaching transgenderism is a scientific biological state in humans rather than a person wanting to follow stereotypes of the opposite sex. It also uses their ridiculous Barbie-to-GI Joe gender spectrum.

This was the Times / Janice Turners article at the time

That’s all I have easily to hand. If you need more, I can see what else I have / can find.

Phew - it posted - blardy connection playing up.

Sorry this one is vague. Leeds but not Mermaids. Trainer is a TW - ?? Natasha. Says N has trained Leeds MPs(!) I've seen a short video somewhere here on FWR, but can't track it down. Any Leeds vipers about?

cwg1 · 27/10/2019 14:05

Yes^^ Governor was the Rev John Parker. Trainer was Jan from Mermaids. Script was the same as one recorded earlier by ??Michael given to a group of teachers. The latter was very kindly transcribed by a group of FWRers.

I can't link easily but look for thread Just listened to Mermaids school training audio.

Floisme · 27/10/2019 13:11

I'm going from memory but I think there was a thread on here earlier in the year about some training, in a school if I remember correctly, that was recorded by one of the governors.

I'll try and look later although it may be tomorrow.
(For the second time today I'm missing R0wan - hope she's ok.)
